<span>Chemical reaction: CH</span>₃COO⁻(aq) + H⁺(aq) ⇄ CH₃COOH(aq).
H⁺ is from HNO₃: HNO₃ → H⁺ + NO₃⁻.
<span>A buffer can
be defined as a substance that prevents the pH of a solution from changing by
either releasing or absorbing H</span>⁺ in a
solution.
Buffer is a solution
that can resist pH change upon the addition of an acidic or basic components
and it is able to neutralize small amounts of added acid or base, pH of
the solution is relatively stable.
Answer:
C. H2O diffuses in.
Explanation:
<em>The phospholipids-made synthetic vesicle in this case will act like a semi-permeable membrane while the solution in the interior lumen will be hypertonic to the surrounding pure water. </em>
<em>Hence, water molecules will diffuse into the lumen through the semi-permeable membrane because of the osmotic gradient that exist between the internal and the surrounding solution of the vesicle.</em>
